attribute	NC_GLOBAL	summary	String	This data archive contains quality controlled data from BGCArgo floats within the SOCCOM (Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling project) array and represents a snapshot of the SOCCOM real-time dataset. This dataset contains the latest available snapshot archive. Each snapshot archive is assigned a unique DOI, and is hosted on the SOCCOM UCSD library digital collection. All snapshot archives of the SOCCOM dataset are available through the full SOCCOM UCSD library digital collection at https://library.ucsd.edu/dc/collection/bb4473712z. See the DOI and history attibutes for specific references for this snapshot. Float specific metadata, as well as raw and QC files from the near-real time dataset are available at https://www3.mbari.org/lobo/Data/FloatVizData/ (navigate to the /QC/ subfolder for quality controlled files). BGCArgo formatted netCDF files for the SOCCOM array are also available on the Argo GDAC (ftp://usgodae.org/pub/outgoing/argo/dac/aoml/). NOTE: While delayed-mode quality control (and data adjustments based on comparisons to reference fields) is assessed across the array prior to the generation of each SOCCOM snapshot archive, all data is PROVIDED AS-IS. Be aware that INACCURACIES MAY BE PRESENT within the data. SOCCOM data managers do their best to provide high-quality, complete data but make no guarantees as to the presence of errors within the data itself or the algorithms used in the generation of derived carbon parameters. It is the USER'S RESPONSIBILITY to ensure that the data meets the user's needs.

attribute	chl_a_corr	comment	String	There is community-established calibration bias of 2 for the WET Labs 413 ECO-series fluorometers (Roesler et al, 2017, doi: 10.1002/lom3.10185). Chl_a has been recalculated using in situ measured dark counts. Chl_a is then divided by the Roesler factor of 2. Lastly, profiles with sun elevaltion > 0 are corrected for NPQ (Xing et al, 2012, doi: 10.4319/lom.2012.10.483) with uncorrected spikes (raw-filtered data) added back to the corrected profile.Chl_a_corr uses a modified Xing approach to correct for NPQ: the reference depth is the shallower of the mixed layer depth or the 1 percent light depth (Kd based on Kim et al., 2015, doi:10.5194/bg-12-5119-2015). No spike profile added. South of 30S a slope correction of 6 was used(E. Boss unpublished data). This correction scheme was decided upon at the 18th Argo Data Management Team meeting in Hamburg, Germany (Nov, 2017), and is subject to change as research on optimal correction methods for float data from FLBB sensors continues.

K1 and K2 dissociation constants were from Lueker et al., 2000, doi:10.1016/S0304-4203(00)00022-0. The KSO4 dissociation constant was from Dickson, 1990, doi: 10.1016/0021-9614(90)90074-Z. The KF dissociation constant was from Perez and Fraga 1987, doi: 10.1016/0304-4203(87)90036-3. The borate to salinity ratio was from Lee et al., 2010, doi:10.1016/j.gca.2009.12.027. Silicate and Phosphate were not measured by the float, but estimates based on Redfieldian ratios improved the carbonate system estimates. If a nitrate value was considered to be of good quality silicate = nitrate*2.5 and phosphate = nitrate/16, otherwise the best estimate for both was considered to be 0. When pCO2 was estimated from TALK_LIAR and pH_insitu, a bias was first added to pH_insitu following Williams et al., 2017, doi: https://doi.org/10.1002/2016GB005541 , section 3.4, equation 3.

The KF dissociation constant was from Perez and Fraga 1987, doi: 10.1016/0304-4203(87)90036-3. The borate to salinity ratio was from Lee et al., 2010, doi:10.1016/j.gca.2009.12.027. Silicate and Phosphate were not measured by the float, but estimates based on Redfieldian ratios improved the carbonate system estimates. If a nitrate value was considered to be of good quality silicate = nitrate*2.5 and phosphate = nitrate/16, otherwise the best estimate for both was considered to be 0. When pCO2 was estimated from TALK_LIAR and pH_insitu, a bias was first added to pH_insitu following Williams et al., 2017, doi: https://doi.org/10.1002/2016GB005541 , section 3.4, equation 3.

Note that TALK_LIAR was estimated using the Locally Interpolated Alkalinity Regression (LIAR) from Carter et al., 2017, https://doi.org/10.1002/lom3.10232. All carbonate system variables calculated with CO2SYS for Matlab (van Heuven et al., 2011, doi: 10.3334/CDIAC/otg.CO2SYS_MATLAB_v1.1) used the following conditions: pH was reported on the total scale. K1 and K2 dissociation constants were from Lueker et al., 2000, doi:10.1016/S0304-4203(00)00022-0. The KSO4 dissociation constant was from Dickson, 1990, doi: 10.1016/0021-9614(90)90074-Z.
